Pop star Harry Styles is putting his modern Los Angeles home on the market for $8.495 million, according to listing agent Justin P. Huchel of Hilton & Hyland.

That is quite a bit more than the British singer paid for the home. He bought it in January of last year for $6.87 million, public records show.

Mr. Styles spends much of his time in London, and he recently bought a home in Manhattan, said Mr. Huchel, who declined to comment on the star’s reasons for selling. He said the price increase is a reflection of renovations Mr. Styles made to the house as well as "a very strong market" in Los Angeles. Mr. Styles couldn't be reached for comment.

In the Hollywood Hills, the house has views of the Pacific Ocean and downtown Los Angeles, Mr. Huchel said. Measuring about 4,400 square feet, it has three bedrooms, a gym and screening room. Large terraces, one of them with a firepit, overlook the city’s skyline. The gated property, which sits on roughly a quarter of an acre, also boasts a swimming pool and cabana. Part of the home’s appeal is that it’s located on a quiet street and vegetation shields the house from prying eyes, Mr. Huchel said. "There’s a premium for the privacy," he said.

Mr. Styles, 23, gained fame as a member of the popular boy band "One Direction," which is now on hiatus. He recently released a self-titled debut solo album and is slated to begin a solo tour in September.
